| The Great Equinox is a testament to the power of family and the written word. Spanning a century in context, these collections of poetry and letters have come together through time and space to produce a rare work of literature. From new Word docs, old typed manuscripts, and hand-written letters, four voices emerge that speak from the heart and tell a small part of their story through the gift of poetry. "Somehow three poets of a single family line, all living west of the Mississippi, each attuned to the wheeling heavens, have kept to the work of poetry, across decades. The result is this unprecedented book. Kinship, astrology, peyote, folklore of the American West. Through it all runs a deep spiritual fervor and a holy love for one another. Is the poetry here, as one inquires, to burn up old family karma? Is it to fulfill the mysteries of the revolving planets, as another suggests? Poetry's first task is to investigate one's place on earth; this book does so-with abundance & overflow.- Andrew Schelling, author of Love and The Turning Seasons: India's Poetry of Spiritual & Erotic Longing"This profound book opens the door on three generations-four voices-of poets by the name of Done and Churchill. Their ensemble draws us into family bonds of searing sincerity, at once sensual and wise, that ask, what secrets do we also hold? Individually, the poems are stunning; together they are a tour de force to be savored again and again."- Acharya Judith Simmer-Brown, Naropa University, Author of Dakini's Warm Breath: The Feminine Principle in Tibetan Buddhism |
